There are calls for more long Covid clinics to be set up nationally.

Figures show there are around 114,000 people still suffering the effects of Covid-19, long after they'd initially contracted the virus, and recovered.

Symptoms of long Covid include extreme tiredness, shortness of breath and dizziness.

Esther-Mary D'Arcy is special adviser to the Irish Society of Chartered Physiotherapists - she wants more clinics to help people suffering:
